Bouwbot

2025

SaaS platform for the construction industry. Time tracking, project management and planning via WhatsApp with AI.

Construction companies juggle dozens of projects at once, with workers spread across sites. Time tracking, materials and planning take a lot of coordination, and most tools that promise to handle it don't fit how construction actually works.

Bouwbot solves that. One platform where workers log their hours, materials and notes via WhatsApp. At the same time, AI follows up automatically when hours are missing. And a dashboard gives project managers an instant view of what needs their attention. Now trusted by 25+ construction companies.

There are plenty of platforms that promise to digitize construction. Project management tools, time tracking apps, dashboards full of features. But most are built for office environments, not for people who spend their day on a building site.

Construction workers work with their hands, not behind a laptop. Downloading a new app or opening a portal doesn't fit their day. But they already use WhatsApp all day, to talk to colleagues, family and friends.

That's the insight behind Bouwbot. Bring the CRM's functionality to where workers already are: WhatsApp.

Workers send Bouwbot a message the same way they'd message a colleague. 'Worked 8 hours today on the Keizersgracht project.' Done. Bouwbot understands it, logs it, and puts it in the dashboard. It works in six languages: Dutch, English, Polish, Romanian, Czech and Ukrainian. Everyone types in their own language.

Did someone forget to log their hours? Bouwbot sends an automatic reminder via WhatsApp. The project manager doesn't have to chase it. Weekly planning also goes through WhatsApp. Urgent jobs get communicated straight away. No extra app, no login, just a message.

On the other side is the dashboard for project managers. A live view of status, planning and progress per project. A complete project file with documents, photos and agreements. Extra and reduced work gets logged in it and communicated directly to the team.

Per project you see personnel costs, revenue and margin in real time. Actual hours alongside the planning. Running behind? You know early enough to adjust.

On pricing: freelancers pay €39 per month, Pro is for teams up to 15 workers, and for larger organizations there's a custom package. WhatsApp integration, personal support and automatic translations are included as standard. First 14 days free, no strings attached.

25+ construction companies now work on the platform, from freelancers to large contractors. Messages are automatically translated into 6 languages via WhatsApp: Dutch, English, Polish, Romanian, Czech and Ukrainian. Missed time logs are down to zero, because the AI follows up automatically when hours are missing.
